It looks like Aaron Sorkin's new Steve Jobs movie is a flop

Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs. Universal Pictures "Steve Jobs," the new biography of the Apple cofounder produced by Aaron Sorkin, had a disappointing debut, earning only an estimated $7.3 million in its opening wide-release weekend, according to Rentrak.

That put it into 7th place in U.S., and is only slightly more than the $6.7 million earned by the widely panned "Jobs," which came out in 2013, the Wall Street Journal reports. "Steve Jobs" was expected to lead the pack this weekend after opening on a small number of screens last weekend.

Sorkin's last tech movie, "The Social Network," about the founding of Facebook, earned more than $22 million on its debut.
